Not a fan of this. I know it's successfully operated in cricket but don't think it would be suitable in rl

I think it's a great idea.

I'm a fan of it reducing the involvement of the bunker. Be interesting to see what it does to the dynamic of the game.

i don't like it. If a challenge is ruled correctly a try and then later in the same half, the officials make a howler, the same team can't challenge it...

Either keep it as it is (my preference) or get rid of video decisions all together.

I think the NRL have ruined the video ref. They very rarely award a try with it, and the whole Bunker branding and showing the video if blokes watching telly has just made them more prominent than they ever should be for no benefit. Why do we need to see some blokes looking at a screen?

They also seem in too much of a rush to give a decision.

Colonel Sanders is loving it. He thinks it's finger licking good.

Indeed sometimes we see the Colonels face for longer than it took to make the decision.

[MEXICO WILL PAY]

Since it's just one decision per game I'm fine with it. There's nothing wrong with helping refs take the right decision.
